ABSTRACT:
In a vehicle having a body with a floor, a ceiling, and a driver's seat: a passive barrier arrangement includes a restraining barrier having a restraining shield bounded by first, second and third restraining shield belts. The first and second restraining shield belts are fixed to the vehicle ceiling, and the third restraining shield belt is connected between the first two at the bottom of the shield. First and second elongate takeup belts are connected to the bottoms of the first two restraining shield belts. First and second takeup belt retractors are mounted to the body and the takeup belts are received by the retractors. The restraining barrier is held by breakaway fastening means in contact with the ceiling of the vehicle when in stowed position. When a crash occurs, the takeup belts are retracted into their retractors, bringing the restraining barrier to have position in front of a driver or passenger sitting on the vehicle seat(s).
